Robert (1) Hogger was born to parents Bartholomew (3) Hogger and his wife Martha (nee) Lemon. He was christened on April 21st 1824 at Monks Eleigh [PR: Cosford DB].

In 1859 he married Mary Bird [Marriage Index: Cosford 4a 579, 1859 (March)]. An unattributed IGI record states that the marriage took place at Monks Eleigh on January 27th but mistakenly gives the year as 1858.
